[D] [G] [A#]
[G] [Am]
I look into your [C#m] eyes, drop like an anchor [G] I, I scattered and clouded the [F] sky, just shy
I'm in [E] the air, meek and air, [Am]
and you almost got [C#m] away
I told you I was [G] afraid, did I really want to [F] try?
[E] You're holding me to my [G] claim, I'll jump on a high speed [B] train
I'll never [Bm] look back [D] again, it's not like me, I [F] love it like [Fm] a fish
[E] Shining from the building, [Am]
and you caught me on [C#m] the side
You've taken me by [G] surprise, you've mirrored my best [F] disguise and turned [E] it back on me
[G]
I'll jump on a high speed [B] train, I'll never look back [Bm] again
[D]
I smell like the air, [F] I love it like a fish, [E] jump from the building
[G]
I'll jump on a high speed [B] train, I'll never look back [Bm] [D] again
Running here [Dm] alone, [F] I'll say [E] I'd go anywhere [A] for you
[G] [Em] [A]
[G] [A]
[G] [F]
[E] [Am]
I'll bring you a bed and [C#m] a crib, I picked it myself [G] today
It compliments [F] your eyes, [E] there's love at the end of [G] the line
I'll jump on a high speed [B] train, I'll never look back [Bm] again
[D]
I smell like the air, [Dm] I love [F] it like a fish, [E] jump from the building
[G]
I'll jump on a high speed [B] train, I'll never look back [Bm] [D] again
Running here [F] alone, I'll say [E] I'd go anywhere [G] for you
And that's what I always [B] knew, I'd like to climb [Bm] a [D] mountain
And rest before [Dm] it [F] spurs inside [E] your sleeping bag
[F] Just dust, no war, no [Em] hate, no past, [F] it's real
I'm here, [E] I'm yours, I'm fast, [F] I'm long in the eye
I [E] cry when [Em] I try, I [Am] just wanna fly, just you and I together
